Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes
Enjoy a vibrant bowl of pasta combining tender chicken breast, whole wheat pasta, and sweet roasted cherry tomatoes tossed in a creamy basil pesto sauce enhanced with a dollop of tangy Greek yogurt for a rich, satisfying flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil if desired, and roast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until they soften and begin to caramelize.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill or sear it in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Once done, allow it to rest, then slice into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.
Mix the basil pesto into the warm pasta along with the Greek yogurt, stirring until the sauce is evenly combined and creamy.
Add the sliced chicken and roasted tomatoes to the pasta. Toss gently to combine all elements.
Serve immediately and enjoy this harmonious blend of flavors.
